If you've got a shoddy circular end table you're no longer fond of, all you need is a BRAVUR IKEA clock and some tools to create a presentative, informative surface to put your drinks.

IKEAHackers' table was slightly too big for the clock, so they had to do some sawing and sanding prep-work first. Since you're only going to need the legs to be in good condition for this project, any old table you can find at garage sales would do. And once you're done, you'll always know what time it is. (Time to wipe the table, most likely.)
